I am planning to pick up a 12 gauge extension cord for some destination trickle charging at 12A/120V. I dont know what the outlet situation will be at the destination this weekend or at other destinations in the future. I am debating whether to get one 50' cord, or both a 25' and a 50' cord.

What is the typical voltage loss when going from a 25' to a 50' cord? Would it be worthwhile to have both cords or excessive?

** I note that neither Tesla nor anyone on this forum recommends charging with an extension cord.
